Questions we get about Creamy Sardine Soup

1.Are the sardines gutted ?The sardines used in the recipe are Mediterranean sardines, meaning these types of sardines are behaded and gutted prior being canned. The other type of sardines are Norwegian and these are smoked once their guts are empty, then they are beheaded prior to canning.

2.Can the bones in sardines be eaten?Bones in small fish such as sardines or herring are edible and pose no risk. However, in this recipe we are removing the spine in the sardines as not everybody likes it. It’s up to you and your individual tastes.
